<p>I'd like to work on const eval, but I have no idea of where to start, does anyone know where I can see some available work/ressources to look into to see what to do there ? Thanks!</p>

<p>we do have the label on github, but that's a very arbitrary list without any clear markers for whether something can be worked on: <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AA-const-eval">https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AA-const-eval</a></p>

<p>There is this skill tree if you have not found it yet. <a href="https://rust-lang.github.io/const-eval/">https://rust-lang.github.io/const-eval/</a><br>
which might help you make sense of the overall structure of the project.</p>

<p>Basically features to the right need features to the left as indicated by arrows to be implemented first.</p>

<p>I know a small bit about the rust compiler, I implemented a query some time ago. I read the Rustc book on Lowering and MIR and such, though I have not used the concepts.<br>
I did not have time this week to check the links, I'll do that this week end</p>
